What happened? Let me guess -- you can't get in to one and are bitter and thus rambling about people tagging "their parent's" club? And your parents aren't members at one? This unreasonable bitterness is clearly coming from somewhere.

No we are actually members ourselves. And have never tagged it.

Are you jealous because you dont have generational wealth? Let's be honest, in country clubs of all places there is a hierarchy, and the legacies or "old money" families are at the very top, no comparison. The newbie members are always lower tier until theyve been there a couple of decads. Maybe that's why it bothers you so much?

You don’t actually belong to a CC. And it shows.

I actually do. And surely have belonged much longer than you

I’ve belonged since birth. lol!

I doubt that.

I don't. DP

And?

And ... your "doubt" and desperate need to post is stupid.

Not really. I notice the newer members are successful and well educated. Second generation are fine but third generation tend to be a bit trashy and uneducated and stand out in a bad way. It happens with generational wealth, third generation is where it all falls apart.

If not at second generation. My grandparents were old-money (vast amounts of it, name on college buildings, etc) and major contributors to their CC. Mainly because my grandmother loved golf. My mother might as well have come out of a trailer park -- and when she and my step-father applied to the CC (she'd been playing there for years in leagues and with my grandmother as a guest), they were turned down which is kind of unheard of (might actually have been my uncle and his wife's influence as I'm sure they didn't want my mother there, or the interview really could have been that bad knowing my step-father). Not sure why my mother was such a mess and absorbed virtually nothing about how to behave from my grandparents, but it is how it was.

According to... a random DCUM troll posting from their parents' basement?

Wishful thinking. Third generation + is when you get into old money territory... everything else is nouveau riche

Shocking they were turned down. At Washington Golf they let them ALL in.

It’s a well known phenomenon. First generation works hard, second witnessed the hard work and continues and is not wasteful, third generation is spoiled, lacks financial literacy and wastes it. Lots of drug abuse, etc.

Yes it’s pathetic for someone to hashtag their parent’s membership when they are living in a studio apartment and couldn’t afford a month in dues. Especially when you’re 40 and old enough to have your own life. Not fully launched!

I knew a family who were all such social climbing wannabes that the husband embezzled millions to keep up with the Joneses to include joining a CC. He went to fed prison for a decade.

Prior to his arrest his wife was tagging the heck out of the CC and throwing parties there.

I don't understand people obsessed with CCs at all, unless they are obsessed with playing golf. That would make sense to me -- you love golf, and your club has a nice course, and there are lots of other people who love to play golf. Otherwise, it is just not something to be obsessed with unless you have nothing else which is kind of pathetic.

The old money thing is something people bring up when they couldn’t hack it themselves and rely on their family’s wealth to live a lifestyle they couldn’t touch without that money. No one actually cares if you approve of them or not. No one had that much respect for you.

I really hope you're posting from your parents' basement, because if youre over the age 12 then something went seriously wrong.

Yes, and that's when you get into the glamorous dillettante category. Again, a nouveau riche like yourself wouldnt get it. The phrase "old money" exists for a reason... and youre SUPPOSED to be clueless.

No, it's a phrase meant to keep out the strivers and new money tacky types like yourself.

I’m surprised they don’t ban it. Ned’s club has a no photography rule. It’s great.
